Hard sell on rain? Couple of Hot days for sure

169K still in Ct wow

Gorgeous night out at the fire pit

We put mint plants around the foundation, they spread like crazy, no ants now

We had a hurricane simulation drill when I was employed by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation. They brought in experts from the Met community and insurance risk people. A 38 hurricane would be a 3 month outage with massive disruption to the economic flow of goods and services. Many of the recommendations like mandatory generators at gas stations and extensive utility infrastructure upgrades were never put in place.

COC 76/62

We sun

wonder if Wolfie is still mehing this

Beautiful day here, sunny skies as far as I can see, high up in a Coconut tree, laying low with just my pups and me.

The pictures I posted in my hood have trees lying in both directions as you said. Even though we power I can here gennys humming all through the hood. Lots of people live deep in the woods with 1/4 mile driveways.

Whats this rain you talk of?

Yeah LR forecasting for winter is about as accurate as the Red Sox pitching staff.

Any rebuild pics? Such an interesting story. 38 changed a lot of things. Since moving up here from Westerly I am amazed at the lack of Emergency Prep and recovery. Westerly suffered the most casualties from 38 and they never forget. They have a plan pre and post and its wonderful how quickly things are brought back to normal. I thought after Irene that my town and area would learn. Its actually become worse.

Doesn't last long

Nice to have that genny and cable. We lost wifi after the first day but I have an antenna for the TV so I could chill at night. Hope you get it fixed. Gas or fixed genny?

I talked to a Asplund tree guy. He said it's mass confusion with no direction. Apparently the main guys who coordinated crews retired and some of the guys left are clueless and only got the jobs because they were connected. ClusterF

SECT and SRI didn't however get the big winds but I get your point. Interesting look around the state and you can see by the damage paths clear locations of outer bands with embedded circulations. I have now seen 2 storms basically exactly the same. Wether they are called tornadoes or not these outer bands winds have a swirling circulation . I watched as my trees whipped from one direction to the other over and over. My anemometers swung direction rapidly. My traces on my graphs are crazy with wind direction

Dude I posted in the other thread. They have a crew sitting outside my daughter's house watching so no one goes near a live line on Rt 138. 5 days now, 12 hour shifts just sitting.

I see the Frank Lloyd Wright influence.

interesting lady took over Public Utility oversight. She is from Maryland and is kicking ass. Her interviews are a breath of fresh air from the pandering politicians we are used to. To top it all off Eversource increased our delivery charges this month by 40% . Some people got 600 to 800 bills when they used the same energy and paid 300 last year. The company doesn't reinvest but doles out stock like crazy. Went from 60 to like 80 this year . CEO made 9 million in bonus, total salary 20 million. They are a joke. They have had a crew sitting outside my daughter's house for 5 days as there is a live line hitting a guardrail on heavily traveled Rt 138. 12 hour shifts watching a live line. Fuking nutz

His house is still in the middle of the street

I can't believe how many people have said they didn't know what was coming and didn't expect much. I think TS Fay may have been a curse

Awesome man!!

woah that looks modern for 38, who was the architect

That sucks, you have a place to shower? Are you on well water?
